HOKU Spikes 30% on Heavy Volume

Hoku Corporation (HOKU) just popped $0.84 to $3.11 in midday Thursday trading. Strength being attributed to a ChinaPost article that speculates that “China is considering new export quotas on rare earth alloys.”

Technically speaking, HOKU continues to see a huge volume ; nearly 800,000 shares have already traded hands compared to a daily average of around 126,000.
